Fennelwithpecorinocheese Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Cut the base off of the fennel bulbs, and cut a cone shape into the base to remove the core. You can see the core because it is whiter than the surrounding green. This is optional, but helps the fennel cook faster. Slice the fennel vertically (upright) into 1/4 inch thick slices.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the fennel, and fry for about 5 minutes. Stir in the half-and-half and creme fraiche until well blended. Transfer to a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over the top.
• Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is golden brown and the fennel is tender enough to pierce with a fork.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Arrange the fennel in the dish. Sprinkle with the salt, lemon zest and garlic. Top with the parmesan cheese and drizzle with the olive oil.
• Bake until the fennel is fork-tender and golden brown, about 45 minutes. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 2 teaspoons, then sprinkle over the roasted fennel along with the pomegranate seeds.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Nestle the fennel into a skillet, baking dish, or sheet pan so that it fits in one layer. Drizzle with the olive oil, turning to coat all sides. Season with salt and pepper, then finely grate half the pecorino cheese over the top. Roast until the fennel is fork-tender, about 45 minutes.
• Place the tomatoes, cut-side up, on top of the fennel. Turn the oven to broil. Broil the tomatoes until slightly charred and warmed through, 6 to 8 minutes. Sprinkle the olives and crumble the remaining pecorino cheese over the top before serving. Garnish with the parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lightly oil the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the fennel in the dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then with the Parmesan. Drizzle with the oil. Bake until the fennel is fork-tender and the top is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 2 teaspoons, then sprinkle over the roasted fennel and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Slice a very thin layer from the bottom of each fennel bulb using a vegetable peeler or paring knife, leaving the core in place to help hold bulb intact. Remove fennel stalks, reserving fronds. Slice bulbs vertically into 1/4-inch slices. Brush slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with ground black pepper and salt on each side.
• Grill fennel slices until charred, about 5 minutes per side; transfer to serving platter.
• Whisk remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, basil, parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, freshly ground black pepper, thyme, and reserved fennel fronds together in a bowl. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and drizzle lemon mixture over fennel.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 475 degrees F.
• Pick 2 tablespoons of the tender green fronds from the tops of the fennel bulbs and set aside. Cut the remaining top and bottom from each fennel bulb, then cut the bulb in half lengthwise through the core. Use the tip of the knife to cut an upside-down "V" on the bottom of each bulb to remove most of the core, leaving just enough so the bulb stays intact. Cut each half through the core into wedges, about 1/4 inch thick.
• Add the fennel bulb, thyme, garlic, olive oil, red pepper flakes and 3/4 teaspoon salt to a large bowl and toss until evenly coated. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast in the oven until the fennel is very tender and lightly browned in spots, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter, top with the reserved fennel fronds and serve with the lemon wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Lightly oil the bottom of a 13 by 9 by 2-inch glass baking dish. Arrange the fennel in the dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then with the Parmesan. Drizzle with the oil. Bake until the fennel is fork-tender and the top is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Chop enough fennel fronds to equal 2 teaspoons, then sprinkle over the roasted fennel and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Lightly oil 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Layer sliced fennel and carrots in dish, sprinkling layers with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle with thyme, then cheese. Drizzle with oil.
• Bake until vegetables are tender and top is golden brown, about 1 1/4 hours.
• Sprinkle with fronds.

Steps:

• Place the fennel in a saucepan with the garlic, lemon, olive oil and salt.
• Pour over enough water to cover the fennel, and bring to the boil.
• Reduce the heat, and simmer for 20 minutes or until just tender.
• Drain well.
• Place the fennel in a heatproof dish, drizzle with the melted butter, then sprinkle with the cheese.
• Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Place under a hot grill (broiler?) until the cheese has melted and browned.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• To make the crust: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Coat a 9" pie plate with no-stick spray.
• In a large bowl or food processor, combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Blend with a pastry blender or process briefly to mix. Add the oil and butter or margarine and stir or process until the mixture resembles fine meal. While stirring constantly or with the motor of the food processor running, add the water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and stir or process for about 30 seconds, or until the dough barely comes together. Transfer to a counter and pat the dough into a flattened disk.
• Place the dough between 2 sheets of wax paper and roll out to an 11" circle. Remove the top sheet and invert the dough into the prepared pie plate. Remove the remaining sheet of wax paper and fit the dough into the plate. Use a fork to poke holes in the bottom and sides of the dough. Line the dough with a piece of foil and top it with a layer of pie weights or dried rice or beans.
• Bake for 10 minutes, remove the weights and foil, and bake for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the dough is dry but has not begun to brown.
• To make the filling: Coat a medium no-stick skillet with no stick spray and place over medium heat. Add the fennel and cook for 5 minutes, or until soft. Add the scallions and cook for 2 minutes. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, eggs, evaporated milk, skim milk, mustard, nutmeg, and pepper.
• Sprinkle the fennel mixture over the bottom of the baked pie shell and top with the Swiss. Pour in the egg mixture and sprinkle the top with the Parmesan and paprika. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
